>Description:
   I normally "make readmes" in /usr/ports after updating via cvsup.  As of 
today, it stops with errors in mail/mew*, mail/mule*, mail/wanderlust* because
of a bad value for EMACS_PORT_NAME.  

===> mail/mew
Error: Bad value of EMACS_PORT_NAME: emacs.
Valid values are:
        Emacs  family: emacs19 mule19 emacs20
        XEmacs family: xemacs19 xemacs20 xemacs21 xemacs21-mule
*** Error code 1

Stop.
*** Error code 1

Stop in /usr/ports/mail.
*** Error code 1

Stop in /usr/ports.

>How-To-Repeat:
  'make readmes' in /usr/ports/mail

>Fix:
 
Not sure.  I've worked around it by making the variable assignment conditional,
i.e. EMACS_PORT_NAME?= in mew, mew-mule, etc., and then do a 
"make EMACS_PORT_NAME=emacs20 readmes", but I consider this to be a complete
kludge.
